    There not 100% but cargil is direct. My understanding is they run u. O/O are taken care of first and your leasted on directly to them. Word has it your priority at any one of their plants. I would be with them, however not giving up my weekends. Can llo them up on line or check the trucker news. They generally have large adds in every issue.

    Sunco in Lakeland Florida. Never too much bad about them. May have a few company trucks.

    spoke to Cargil and Sunco...what I was told( if the average person looks past the smoke and mirrors)..
    ...is , on average, $1.50/m-$1.85/m....
    ...frozen and refrigerated...
    ...can haul for both of them w/your own auth...

    When u look at that rate it's so so, you have to figure the dollar amount of the other benifits as well, tire discount ....... Plus that's every practical mile if I'm not mistaken. What did Jeff say? Probably run u from Kansas to west coast and back???? Just keep turning it!!!!! lol

    Sunco..Cargil...running w/your own auth.....
    or leased to them..
    no tire discounts...(with your auth.)
    ...no other benefits...(with your own auth.)

    ...$1.50/m is a $1.50/m ..period..

    I've known several that worked with them, some very successful & some not. The ones that were not had trucks with too much maintenance costs.

    Then buy your own trailer and not rely on someone else for equipment??? If your going to run your own authority, why do you want to pull someone else's trailer??? Maybe I missed something
